Embed This Verse

22 And he said to his disciples, f“Therefore I tell you, gdo not be anxious about your life, what you will eat, nor about your body, what you will put on.23 For life is more than food, and the body more than clothing.24 hConsider the ravens: they neither sow nor reap, they have neither storehouse nor barn, and yet God feeds them. iOf how much more value are you than the birds!25 And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his jspan of life?326 If then you are not able to do as small a thing as that, why are you anxious about the rest?27 Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin,4 yet I tell you, keven Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.28 But if God so clothes the grass, which is alive in the field today, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, lO you of little faith!29 And do not seek what you are to eat and what you are to drink, nor mbe worried.30 For nall the nations of the world seek after these things, and nyour Father knows that you need them.31 Instead, oseek phis5 kingdom, qand these things will be added to you.

32 r“Fear not, little sflock, for tit is your Father’s good pleasure to give you uthe kingdom.33 vSell your possessions, and wgive to the needy. xProvide yourselves with moneybags that do not grow old, with ya treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys.34 zFor where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
